This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), under CFDA Program 93.242 Mental Health Research Grants, will support a study on "Sleep as a Mechanism of Premenstrual Exacerbation of Depression and Suicidality." The $162,486 award, effective December 27, 2024 through June 26, 2028, will utilize high-resolution digital health sleep data from a recently completed clinical trial to examine the role of sleep disturbances as a potential physiological mediator...
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) awarded a $2,809,928 Project Grant (CFDA 93.242 - Mental Health Research Grants) to the University of Pittsburgh to conduct a multi-site, double-blind, randomized-controlled efficacy trial of a transdiagnostic intervention for sleep and circadian dysfunction to improve depression symptoms in older adults with high suicide risk. The study aims to confirm the target engagement and efficacy of this intervention, as well as develop an algorithm to...
This $1,432,724 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), will fund a research study examining the developmental impacts of sleep patterns on positive valence systems and socioemotional functioning during pre-adolescence. The study consists of two components: 1) a one-year longitudinal burst design with a non-clinical sample of 290 youth aged 8-12 to assess behavioral and neurophysiological...
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) awarded a Project Grant under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to the Research Institute at Nationwide Children's Hospital (RINCH). The $195,000 award, effective May 1, 2025 through April 30, 2027, will fund a research project titled "Characterizing the Role of Sleep Brain Dynamics in the Emergence of Depression in Adolescents".

This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), is funding a $424,875 research project titled "Adolescent Trauma Produces Enduring Disruptions in Sleep Architecture that Lead to Increased Risk for Adult Mental Illness." The project aims to: 1) determine if individual differences in sleep profiles following adolescent stress can predict adult behavioral outcomes related to depression and...
This Project Grant award of $1,549,649.37 from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) will support a multimodal assessment of social disconnection as a risk factor for suicide ideation in older adults. The key products and services to be delivered under this 4-year award, which begins on April 1, 2025, include: Conducting an intensive longitudinal study over 1 year with a diverse sample of 250 men and women aged 60 and older...
This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), supports a five-year study on the role of environmental exposures and allostatic load in risk and resilience to youth suicide attempts. The $739,843 award, with an effective date of September 1, 2024, will be led by the principal investigator at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP). The project involves secondary analysis of data...
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) awarded a $259,773 Project Grant (CFDA 93.242 - Mental Health Research Grants) to the Lundquist Institute for Biomedical Innovation at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center to investigate suicidal behavior among adolescents experiencing homelessness in the U.S. during the COVID-19 pandemic. The project aims to analyze trends in suicidal behavior before, during, and after the pandemic to determine if the crisis has exacerbated disparities between homeless and...
This Project Grant award of $668,532 from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) will fund a socioecological study on suicide risk and mental health care access for autistic individuals.

This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH, CFDA 93.242 Mental Health Research Grants) provides $588,018 to The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania to investigate the neural basis of how stress impacts sleep architecture and cognition. The key focus is to determine how inputs from stress-regulatory neurons in the locus coeruleus and paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus disrupt specific features of sleep, such as microarousals and REM sleep...

This Project Grant award of $793,161.00 from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) supports a study on the relationship between nocturnal wakefulness and suicide risk. The study aims to experimentally examine how mood, neuropsychological function, and suicidality are impacted by circadian rhythms and homeostatic sleep pressure, particularly during the 2-4am timeframe. The project will recruit 90 adults with a history of recent suicide ideation to complete in-lab and at-home assessments. The results are expected to advance understanding of the physiological mechanisms driving elevated suicide risk during the biological night, informing future prevention and treatment approaches. The award period runs from December 27, 2024 to November 30, 2029, and the work will be conducted by the University of Arizona.
